Online · every other week
The Third Attractor Live
One episode is announced ahead of each session. Everyone arrives having seen it, so the time together is spent thinking rather than catching up.
Ninety minutes, facilitated, on Zoom. There is no panel and no lecture: the session is an invitation into dialogue, and you are expected to speak. Registering is free and gets you the link, plus your login to the Manifest Nirvana portal where the sessions live.
In person · once a year
The Manifest Nirvana retreat
Twelve days at the foot of Arunachala, in Tiruvannamalai — meditation, dialogue and inquiry, held together rather than streamed.
Taking part is free; a $200 fee covers meals and infrastructure, and accommodation is arranged separately with the neighbouring Gia Mantra Global Village. Daily attendance is expected, from the evening of 5 January to breakfast on 16 January.
